Estero Morua on Thursday, December 23, 2004

Estero Morua 12/23/2004 NO HOMEOWNERS AT ALL! I had the place to myself. (almost got killed on the way back -- wasn't this the time I fell asleep at the wheel on the road toward vekol road???) Windy and sunny but still kind of cold. I was glad I had my arctic sleeping bag. Missed the WHIMBREL AND THE WILSON'S PLOVER darn it. Slept around the clock the first night and decided to stay another night until Xmas. Check beach log for more information. FUNNY; NO LEAST TERNS THIS YEAR. Noodles was with me of course!
